What breed are these dogs? Does anyone own one or know of anyone who does? I'm planning on buying a dog and I'm thinking about getting one.

Check your local shelter... ours has huskies all the time.

They NEED to run, everyday, a lot. And they don't listen very well or make good watch dogs. If you've never had a dog before, get a lab or a retriever.

Siberian Huskies are actually smaller than regular huskies, with a tawny color to their coat. They aren't sled dogs I don't believe. Malamutes are.

While they do need to be exercised every day, I found that since I began training mine as puppies, they were, in turn, quite obedient.
No matter how well trained a Siberian Huskey is, if they see or smell something they want there is no stopping them from going after it, but for the most part they are extremely obedient dogs. I have two right now and they're better behaved than my Golden.
Were you ever able to get yours to use a lead? Without injury to yourself?
They have their quirks, but overall they are some great dogs.

My mind is made up  I checked with a local animal shelter and they said that they have two alaskan malamutes. I think I'm going to get both of them. I live in Michigan, do you think they'll be all right in that type of climate?

That is great!
Two dogs are soooo much happier than one, somebody to play with while you're at work, etc. They'll love the winters (I'm in WI) and slow down big time in the summer. Do you plan to keep them inside or get a pen?
Congrats on getting them from a shelter. Five shrooms and good karma to you

My stupid ass digi cam isn't working right now, otherwise I'd give you guys a couple pics... I got this one off of google, but both of the dogs are about six months and look just like the one on the left. Fucking sweet - I can't wait. It was hard not to just take all the dogs from the shelter at once...training twenty dogs at once would be pretty tough though, so I think I'll just start off with two  I'm going back on Saturday for all the details and stuff.
